What is a Blended Intensive Programme (BIP)?

 

Short-term intensive programmes are a new feature of the Erasmus+ programme that allows the promotion and implementation of international mobility in a combination of physical and virtual activities. The aim is to foster international connections between higher education institutions to collectively develop programmes for groups of students, academics or administrative staff to be trained, study, and learn using innovative approaches and digital tools. 

The main features of a BIP are the following:

  • A connection of at least 3 higher education institutions from 3 different Erasmus+ programme countries
  • A combination of a physical mobility of 5–30 days and a compulsory virtual component
  • Attending participants can be students of all study cycles, academic and administrative staff
  • The sending institution provides BIP participants with a scholarship from its Erasmus+ budget for a stay at the receiving (coordinating) institution
